Supporting Evidence?
You better support your ladies, girls. No, not your best buds… “the ladies.”
A woman in Detroit survived getting shot because her bra deflected a bullet. Police say the woman saw a group of men breaking into a neighbor’s house. When they spotted her, they shot at her. The bullet hit the under-wire in her bra and saved her life. She only has minor injuries.

Movin' on up (I-35)
It’s official. I’m a Minnesotan (again). Cue the MTM theme song. My parents came down to KC and we packed up my entire apartment… after a few panic attacks (not everything fit into boxes) the movers came and took them all away. We also crammed our two cars full of things to bring home.
Here’s what I learned:
You can’t possibly fit 800 square feet of stuff into 40...
Opening Day at The "K"
Friday was Opening Day at Kauffman Stadium. It was also a big day for Kansas City, as the Royals officially unveiled the new $225 million worth of renovations.
The ‘K’ looks awesome. I was on the field for batting practice and then stayed for the game. While I’m not a completely faithful Royals fan, I was beyond impressed with the stadium.
Improvements include: finishing the...
WatchYup. They’re professionals. … and I work with them.
This morning we had a preview of the big Kansas City Easter Parade. One of the events at the parade is a sack race. So my anchor Mark and meteorologist Don were talking smack to one another about who would win if they were to race. It was too good of an opportunity to pass up. I killed my final block of news and sent the boys...

We've been out to the ball game
My Great Uncle Stan is kind of a big deal, especially in the world of the Minnesota Twins. He’s one of about 70 season ticket holders who have had season tickets since the team started in 1961 (most of which are companies, not individuals). The St. Paul Pioneer Press highlighted him on the front page of today’s paper.
Not only has he been to over a thousand games, Uncle Stan has some...
Two things
A big congratulations and Rock Chalk to Kansas head basketball coach Bill Self. He was named as Coach of the Year by the Associated Press. And he killed the polling - he won 28 of the votes. Second place, only got 10. He overcame uber challenges this season. He lost all five starters from his Championship team, seven players total. And while this was a “rebuilding year,” the Jayhawks...
Why I love Steve-O
Steve-O is one of the original members of MTV’s Jackass. You know, the guys who ride their bikes off cliffs, impregnante cows and give themselves papercuts. Steve-O particularily specializes acrobatics, self-inflicting pain and, well, acting like a jackass.
He’s on ABC’s Dancing With The Stars and is teamed up with Lacey Schwimmer. I can’t imagine him with anyone else (and...
